Officer Reports

Treasurer & Budget

  • Treasurer's report: https://www.i3detroit.org/wi/images/0/0b/September2020ProfitandLoss.pdf
  • Most of the expansion funds are spoken for. Otherwise the Net below is our currently un-spoken-for funds.
  • Some discussion on delineating between expansion expenses and day-to-day expenses
  • Half the grant funds (50k) are currently directed toward potential COO expenses, so if we have new expenses we have to take from there.
  • We're coming up on a year since a lot of people bought annual membership dues, so we might see a bump from people paying for new annual/monthly dues again.
Bank balance $134,045.22
Emergency Fund ($)30,000.00
Allocated to Zones/SIGs/etc. ($)25,735.12

Committee Reports

CRM Committee

  • No updates this month.

Expansion Committee

  • Still waiting on the limited CoO for B side? But we almost have a new fire door! (Needs the bottom finished.)

Fundraising Committee

  • No updates this month.
  • Evan: how are we doing on things that need to be sent to people?
  • We sent an email explaining some things will be late.
  • We should add some construction-y photos like the new doors

Safety & Compliance Committee

  • No updates this month.

Moderation Committee

  • Mod queue: In the last few weeks, a few items have been sent to -announce and then determined to be erroneous moments later (classic l'esprit d'escalier), so they could be removed from the queue and recomposed.
  • Group admin: The new Google Groups interface removes the on-join question that we had been using as a spam trap, and this requires some changes to the new-member forms but it's not that big a deal. See #new-members on october 4, or just https://i3detroit.slack.com/archives/C0PB7TRNE/p1601836628020100
  • Nothing else to report.

Board list moderation

Mtfurlan (talk) accidentally created a board moderation group by marking spam as spam. It now moderates stuff google thinks is spam. It has had one false positive so far.

Ask if you wanted to be added.

Camera Review Review

  • None happened.

Summary of Board List/Slack Discussions since last meeting

  • We created a disciplinary framework for covid violations! I think you can find it in the covid rules? Probably?
  • We applied some of these rules. Sent 27 warnings. Probably going to suspend some people.
  • Put out a survey for officers and now we're going to appoint some officers.
  • Some administrative stuff about who is chairing meetings or taking minutes or whatever.
  • Lots of discussion of the data analysis of tracking the covid violations. David is going to help.

New Business

Pallet Stacker

Proposal:
Allocate up to $2000 from expansion funds for purchase of pallet stacker (aka manually operated forklift). POC Tim Clayson. Funds are reappropriated from existing expansion appropriations.
Context
Multiple recent equipment purchases will require forklift for unloading. Rentals are approx $400-500 per day.
Moved by Mark, Seconded by Mel
6 Ayes / 0 Nays
Result: PASS
  • Discussion about where it will live/floor space. For now it can just go on B-Side.
  • Mel suggets we take this out of the $50,000 COO allocation instead of taking funds back from zones.
  • Evan suggests it could also be considered part of the zone expenses that require it and could come from them.
  • General discussion about both of these and compromises in between, like letting zones voluntarily chipping in for it.

COVID-19 Policy Suspensions

Proposal:
Suspend members A, B, & C for two weeks for failing to properly fill out their covid paperwork after previously being suspended. Suspend member D for two weeks for repeatedly failing to fill out paperwork after being warned, and for failing to properly wear a mask or respect zone occupancy limits.
Context
The lack of longer duration suspensions for repeated offenses is due to initial delays in notification of first offenses.
Moved by Mark, Seconded by Mel
6 Ayes / 0 Nays
Result: PASS

New A-B Door

  • Discussion over whether the door being installed meets our needs and if there was some miscommunication or error made.
